Sung in Latin Et benedicta tu, o fortes, ut sicut aura spiritus amoris, ut pedibus et gladius celer, memento amator, precor ut redeat ad eam English translation And blessed be thou, O you brave one, so that just like the breeze, is the spirit of love, and so that your feet and sword will be swift. Remember the one you love, I pray that you will return to her.

Awake, but dreaming, lost in a void so high, but falling, dying inside you wander through hourglass sands until they’re still forever Bittersweet, you’re with me now, but I know that you’ll soon be gone Hard to breathe, the pain right now was happiness then Mystery, what is the reason? What are we living for? You’re my victory, until we’re crushed from dust to dust So fragile, your tenderness I ache for something I’d never wished You haunt my thoughts, creating your shadows until the darkness covers Before I follow the light Before my life flashes before my eyes As sand falls, the pile it builds my soul now crushed, I no longer feel. Eyes grow heavy as shadows consume, breath now empty, I welcome this tomb. Before I follow the light Before my life flashes before my eyes Wind surrounds me, as grains release the ground now empty, my person deceased. Darkness it falls, to shadows of night, hourglass shattered, the final sight. Bittersweet, you’re with me now, but I know that you’ll soon be gone Hard to breathe, the pain right now was happiness then Mystery, what is the reason? What are we living for? You’re my victory, until we’re crushed from dust to dust

With words like gentle breeze, your voice caresses me As the sun goes down, I fall into a dream I stand upon the shore and the boatman’s coming closer In the silence of eternity, If I’m carried across the darkened sea come face to face with my reckoning, will our hearts be true? I’ll wait for you, I’ll wait for you Death/Black I I will wait for you......At the ferrymans shore I’ll wait for you at the ferryman’s shore I’ll not cross over, I won’t succumb to Charon’s oar I won’t surrender at the ferryman’s shore until the day your hand’s in mine once more at the ferryman’s shore With hopes like falling stars, I feel it in my heart I never would forget the burden of regret I have to stand my ground when the boatman stares me down In the silence of eternity, If I’m carried across the darkened sea come face to face with my reckoning, will our hearts be true? I’ll wait for you, I’ll wait for you Death/Black I I will wait for you At the ferrymans shore I’ll wait for you at the ferryman’s shore I’ll not cross over, I won’t succumb to Charon’s oar I won’t surrender at the ferryman’s shore until the day your hand’s in mine once more at the ferryman’s shore (spoken) Child your final ride beckons, walk with me now to eternity If you’re bound for the fields of Elysium where heroes go to rest I’ll never rest until I go there as your heroine Elysium, Elysium (doom vocals) over end Love and life....sorrow and death....take my hand....your final ride (whispered) I am the ferryman
